It's not quite a Grand Design but we intend to completely transform the house. Our plan was to get a small selection of architects round in the New Year to give us their thoughts on what could be done and draw up some plans. Can we still do this in the new lockdown, as they would obviously need to visit our home? Are architects among the property professionals still allowed to work? We will also need to work on finding a builder and put in for planning permission, is this likely to be harder? Builders and architects can still come to your home in England, Wales and Northern Ireland
